How late do you stay out?

I was talking to my friend who studied abroad in Spain, and she said that they would routinely go out to clubs and bars until like 5 in the morning. I can't even fathom staying out that late. I'm pretty young, only 21, but I'm ready to call it quits and go to bed by 1 most of the time. Sometimes I'll stay out later, but I can feel my body crashing when I do. And I don't even go to clubs and dance. I just sit at a bar and drink with friends. I can't imagine staying up that late while also dancing the whole time. What about you, Gaf? Do you party till the sun comes up, or is it lights out early into the night?
 
Depends on what's going on. I'll stay till nine or ten in the morning if it's good craic. Longest I've stayed out was three days I think.
 
if you sit and drink, nobody keeps up until 5am. In Spain we start drinking later than other countries, if you start after 10pm it is easier than starting after 7pm like a lot of tourists here in spain, they start throwing up in the streets at 11:00pm.
 
I saw a comment by someone last year that was so ridiculous I assumed he was trolling. He was talking about the German club DJ/rave scene and said the something like "the good DJ doesn't even go on until 3 AM." He too said it was common to party until 5 AM.

I was up until 2:30 AM playing Overwatch with a friend two days ago. I'm still recovering.
 
In NYC I used to stay out till 5am or break the night. I haven't have much opportunity living in Chicago and I'm used to going home around 2-3am.
 
I'm at an age now where I like being home by like 8pm. I'm usually awake by 5am or so. lol

I have zero interest in being out late.
 
Depends. Some times I want to be at home at 12pm. Some times I get home at 8am.

If you get a good flow, fun experiences and good people, the party can go on forever.
 
When I was in my late teens, early twenties I often got home at 9 in the morning. Now I can't even remember when I last went out.
 
When I'm out at a party usually until 2 - 5ish (if it's good and I'm having fun).

In Europe most partys don't get going until 12 or 1 anyway.

I am close to 34 now, going out to clubs and bars is not really my thing anymore.

To be fair, I never loved it. Too crowded. Too loud. Too many people to annoy me by pushing or being drunk cunts. So I was kind of glad when it became socially acceptable to turn down invites to go out to those things.
 
4am usually. That's cuz that's when the bars close here

If there's an after party I'll be there till the bitter end.

For my mates stag in Hamburg we left a bunker having a rave at 10am and that was only cuz one of the guys got kicked out for being asleep
 
On those rare occasions when I go out, I'm done by midnight. I'm usually tired and ready for bed and then the kids wake me up at 7am so it's not like I can just lie in bed if I roll in at 4am. Same reason I don't drink much anymore, I can't give any hangover the respect it deserves.
 
If I'm going out the club I go to closes at 3:00am, and generally my friends get food afterwards before we get a taxi home, so I'd say I'm usually home between 4am and 5am. I'm in Ireland since location seems quite relevant here.
 
Kinda depends. I always say to myself I'm not gonna make it late this time, but somehow it's always 4-5am untill I get in my bed. I don't go out every weekend though, never really been my thing. When I go out it's usually someplace a bit more quiet and calm and enjoy some drinks and have a chat with friends.
 
London here. Not getting home till 6/7am is pretty common on a good night out.

Get out the club around 4/5. Mingle at a McDonalds or Kebab shop till around 6 >> Go home (if you're lucky with someone you met).
 
Depends.

If it's dinner and drinks with friends I'll probably be home by 1am

If it's clubbing then 3-4am

When I was in my late teens/20s it was 4am every Fri/Sat without fail (UK)

This is pretty reasonable if you're going out on a weekend, for me I usually start fading around 12 or 1, and if it's a weeknight forget about it, 10 o'clock is the max, and I probably have left wherever I was by that point anyway.

Then again I go out maybe once every three months these days, and I don't really drink.
 
Back when I'd hit the bar/club scene, we'd usually get there around 10ish and stay until closing which was I think 2 or 2:30. A good 4-5 hours was pretty typical and was never something I had to worry about, the time usually flew by.
 
We've drank until sunrise, which is always a terrible idea. Even worse when you have a lunch date 4 hours later.
 
Depends, bar nights, 1 or 2. Techno parties can be as late as 10 am. Im 36, usually do take the monday of after such a late night though

It seems like European nightlife just goes later in general than American nightlife. Or at least, it goes later than my circle of friends in America lol. I don't know if I would fit in very well over there. Even if I'm having a great time out, I still clock out before it gets too late in the night/morning.
 
The trick to staying out till the sun comes up when partying at clubs or concerts and being super drunk? MDMA, speed, or cocaine, or a mix of all 3.

Back in uni the bars/clubs closed at 2, so usually home and post hangout with friends till 330 or so.
 
If I'm "out" and have no where to be in the morning, I'll typically be back before 3am. I usually leave when everyone else is ready to go.

EDIT: Some of my friends go, "I have to be up for work in morning," and it's like 1am. @_@ How they do it, I'll never know, and I never want to find out.

Hah, 5. In Spain its more like til 8 or 9 on a crazy night. 5 is normal. I'm 26. I can dance for hours. But I'm Latino so it's in our blood to party lol. But bars in Texas close at 2.
 
I'm already an old person. I try to be home by 9:30 at the latest whenever I'm out. Every now and then I decide to be young again and stay out till 2am but it's rare.
 
At uni I stay at the club till 3, leave grab food and sit eat and chat drunkenly till like 4-5 then go to sleep/ pass out. The day will start with pre drinks at like 9PM.

Most clubs close at like 3/4

If I'm still a bit sober or feeling ill I might leave at like 1 or 2 ish.
